LOOKFANTASTIC BEAUTY BOX #6 - October 2020

I was hoping to have posted about this last Thursday, but it took a while for my box to arrive. There was an issue with some people’s subscriptions and it mean’t some orders were not generated for existing subscribers. The issue was corrected and I have now received my box. Last month’s box was the Birthday Edition and this month we have the Retreat Edition with an indigo themed box. The six items inside the box should be worth over £58.00 altogether!

Here is what I received this month:-

GLOV Hair Wrap

| £14.99 |

This hair towel is made of from microfibres, which means it is gentler for your hair. I use a hair wrap towel every time I wash my hair, so this will come in very handy. I usually prefer darker colour towels as white ones look grubby after a while.

| Full Size - £14.99 |

ECOOKING Overnight Foot Cream

| 30ml - £8.10 |

This foot cream is supposed to remove dead skin as well as moisturise. It works best overnight and it is recommend that you wear socks over the cream. It contains Eucalyptus and Menthol to soothe and cool the skin. I received two little 15ml jars of the cream. The scent reminds me a lot of Vicks VapoRub. I’m not really into foot creams or body creams in general, although I do use hand cream, but I will give it ago. Luckily the 30ml amount came in two separate jars, so I can always give one away.

| Full Size: 100ml - £26.00 |

BY TERRY Baume De Rose Flaconnette

| 2.3g - £14.00 |

This lip balm is infused with shea butter, rose flower wax and Vitamin E. It should glide onto your lips and provide nourishment with a subtle shine. This was the September Sneak Peak item. I am into using a heavier lip product at night before bed. I use a light solid wax SPF lip balm during the day and then a thicker oil/cream based lip balm in the evening. I am excited to give this a go once I have finished up my Charlotte Tilbury Charlotte’s Magic Lip Oil Crystal Elixir.

| Full Size: 7ml - £32.50 |

BEAUTY PRO Eye Therapy Under Eye Mask

| 1 pair - £4.25 |

This eye mask is a soothing and cooling treatment to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and reduce dark circles and puffiness. I quite like eye masks and I can’t wait to give this one a go. Some BB subscribers may have received the STARSKIN Smoothing Bio-Cellulose Second Skin Eye Catcher Mask instead of this one.

| Full Size: 3 pairs - £4.95 |

Bubble T Earl Grey Bath Tea

| 100g - £5.99 |

These bath salts are supposed to relieve aches and pains whilst leaving you feeling relaxed. This is a limited edition blend in partnership with LookFantastic. I prefer showers to baths and I can’t actually remember the last time I had a bath! I will probably not use these salts, but I have heard very good things about bath salts in general.

| Full Size: 100g - £5.99 |

Balance Me Bakuchiol Serum

| 7ml - £11.00 |

This facial serum should provide anti-ageing benefits without sensitivity and irritation. It should also give you a smoother texture, enhanced collagen production and reduce fine lines and wrinkles. The main ingredient, Bakuchiol is 100% plant based and is an alternative to retinol. I have tried a few different serums this year and I now have another one to test. I actually quite like testing them, but I haven’t re-purchased one I have tried yet though because there are so many interesting ones available, some are also highly expensive!

| Full Size: 30ml - £32.00 |

This was kind of a boring box for me, not really worth the extra wait for it. I am excited to try out a couple of the products, but I am just underwhelmed a little. I hope next month’s box is more exciting and I can’t wait to receive my Advent Calendar this month. My box this month was worth £58.33.

The Sneak Peak for November’s Box is that you should receive an 8ml tube of the NAOBAY Detox Oxygen Light Cream (worth £16.00).

Review: Travalo Classic

I was sorting through some old pictures in my blog folder on my computer and I came across some Travalo pictures I took, and remembered I was mean’t to do a post about it. So better late than never, I am going to share with you how to use it and what I think. About the Travalo The Travalo is a small and handy perfume atomiser that allows you to decant a small amount of your favourite perfume into the tube and carry it with you, so you don’t have to carry around the bottle. It is made of strong, light aluminium and is 80mm in size and holds 4ml of liquid, which is approximately fifty sprays. It is also a “perfectly” rounded shape, which means there are no corners, so you don’t have to worry about it ripping your handbag, purse and pockets or scratching any furniture and surfaces. How to Use It If you want to decant some perfume to put in the Travalo you need to: 1. Take the spray cap off the perfume bottle 2. Get your Travalo and hold it upright over the spray s...

Essie Winter 2016 Collection

I was browsing Boots.com for gift ideas and I came across an Essie offer. You got four of their full size (13.5ml) winter 2016 polishes for £17.50. I didn’t get to choose which shades myself but the ones they were offering looked beautiful and are probably the shades I would have chosen anyway. There are six shades in the collection overall; Getting Groovy, Go With the Flowy, Satin Sister, Oh Behave!, Party On A Platform and Ready to Boa. I four I received are:- Getting Groovy - metallic gold palladium Party On A Platform - London garnet red Oh Behave! - minx peach frost Ready to Boa - glistening bronzed mahogany The shades are absolutely gorgeous and my favourites are Getting Groovy and Oh Behave!. They are all perfect picks for Christmas and sadly the offer is no longer available, however you can still purchase the individual shades. ♥ ♥ ♥

Review: Rimmel Professional Eyebrow Pencil

This was the second eyebrow pencil I had ever tried because I wanted something that was inexpensive and maybe had an applicator with it. The product just looks like an eyeliner pencil, but on the side of the cap there is a grooming brush. The cap colour reflects the actual product colour. To apply it, you take off the cap and put it on the end of the pencil. You then just fill in your eyebrows like you would normally, just add more pressure to the pencil if you want a darker look. You can then turn the pencil upside down and use the brush. The formula is really soft and you can tell it has some wax built in to it. You get 1.4g of product and the shade I have is 002 Hazel , which is a light honey brown shade. This brow pencil is supposed to be brilliant for filling the gaps in your brows and great for lengthening your arc for a natural look. The colour should be long wearing and smudge-proof and the brush applicator should make it easy for you to groom and shape. I ...
